This is the message from client->server ? So it's the regional selection
by user as you've mentioned in the previous email. (Because in my case,
the client just send segment id back, and it should be enough.)

It's possible to do this way, just reverse or move the region data from
the client side to user side. But in this stage, I believe that the
recent region description scheme is not efficiency enough to describe
user select region, which is free form selection. Generally, the recent
scheme use mpeg-7 which only supports box and poly. For free form region
description, David suggested that chain code is possibly better.
However, AFAIK, mpeg-7 does not support chain code.


Hence, I believe that you agree with me about my protocol, so how about the
 wording ? should I change any words ? If everything is ok, I will
submit my DTD soon, after discuss it (again) with David.

Any suggestion from the other members of the list will very useful and
welcome ^_^

Done, update query-paradigm to follow the MRML concepts. Some comments
are added also. The URL is

I use 0.1.7 tarball from ftp.gnu.org to create the deb package, however
I did ./configure and make distclean before start the process. So I have
no problem with 0.1.7.

Finally, I have some warning and error when create debian package, such
as any files should not be put in /usr/share/ directly, in this case, it's
/usr/share/mrml.dtd and it's friends. I will make some report(?) about
the problems and the suggestion how to make it works well with debian
(this should be sent to you personally or to the list ? it will be quite
long). However, the other distribution also have their own policy so
maybe we have to make some compromise about the packaging.

Cheers,
Pruet
